Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Place the guanciale slices on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake for 5-8 minutes or until crisp.
- Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Add the vinegar and the tomatoes, then turn off the heat and let soak for 5 minutes. Drain and cut into strips.
- Coat a sauté pan with extra-virgin olive oil over medium-low heat. Lightly cook the spinach, add the tomato strips then cook for 1 minute.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season with salt. Add pasta and cook until al dente. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the pasta cooking water. Toss the pasta in the sauté pan with the spinach and tomatoes.
- In a small bowl, add 1 ladle of the pasta cooking water to the pecorino, stirring until melted. Pour into the sauté pan. Mix well. Top with guanciale. Serve.
